This morning started off on the wrong note. I woke up around 2 AM to some scratching noises in the ceiling. RJ was pacing around to get a sense of what was going on. Oh, great. I have some unwanted guests living in the roof. I pulled up the animal control website on my phone and tried to tune it out as much as possible. As soon as I relaxed enough to fall asleep, the creature picked that time to be active again. When I got out of bed for good, I called the animal control people and the lady on the phone was not surprised that I was having issues. "Oh, this is the time that animals are having their babies. It could be three things: squirrels, flying squirrels and raccoons. Would you like us to come for an inspection?" I wish they had an available appointment today, but apparently they were booked and tomorrow was not a good time for me because I have to be at the office. Wednesday it is. If anything, I hope they can at least identify where the animals are coming in and patch it up so there are no more unwanted tenants.

When I IMed Julie when I got to work, she was like "At least it wasn't spiders."

On a brighter note, I got my car serviced this morning and the maintenance guy gave me a 15% discount because I bought it at a partner Honda dealership.

Meg's birthday is coming up soon, so in preparation, I made her birthday card last night. I was inspired by our recent trip to the San Diego Zoo and her love of flamingos. I used this origami site as a reference for the origami model.
